One of the hot new sci-fi series of 2024 was Apple TV's "Dark Matter," created by Blake Crouch and based on Crouch's 2016 novel. "Dark Matter" centers on one Jason Dessen (Joel Edgerton), a college physics professor who lives with his wife Daniela (Jennifer Connolly) and son Charlie (Oakes Fegley). However, everything changes when Jason is kidnapped by ... an alternate version of himself from a parallel dimension. Jason #02, as he's called, comes from a dimension where he didn't marry Daniela and kept working on weird physics experiments, eventually inventing a high-tech box that allows one to skip between dimensions. Jason #02 then decided to use this to see what his life would

Zendaya got her start on TV, starring on the 2010 Disney Channel TV series "Shake It Up." The series followed Zendaya as Rocky Blue, along with her best friend CeCe Jones (Bella Thorne), as they pursued their dreams of becoming professional dancers. The series lasted for three seasons and 75 episodes, and Zendaya became a Disney Channel staple. She was only about 14 when the show began.  After her big break, the young star made guest appearances on other Disney Channel shows like "Good Luck Charlie" and "A.N.T. Farm" before moving into the channel's TV movies "Frenemies" and "Zapped." In the middle of this, she also played a brief voice role in her first non-Disney film,

Kenneth Branagh has urged “caution and vigilance” around class representation in acting. Speaking in the latest conversation session at Edinburgh International Film Festival (Eiff), Branagh said “the fight to make sure that everybody can be heard and have a chance to participate is just ongoing.” “The caution and vigilance is always important to have if you believe that the character of theatre or the world of acting in British films is fully and most excitingly represented by many diverse voices,” said the actor-director. Branagh is president of UK acting school the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts (Rada), having graduated there

Dog days of summer? This year’s August at the box office didn’t get the memo. This popcorn season is ending with a bang rather than the usual whimper as “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” and “The Odyssey” continue to pack in crowds. Meanwhile, two new movies, Warner Bros.’ prehistoric sci-fi mystery “The End of Oak Street” with Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor and Paramount’s animated sequel “Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie,” each debuted above $20 million. Despite those newcomers, “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” remained No. 1 in North America with $70 million in its third weekend of release. Sony and Marvel’s comic book epic, starring Tom Holland as Peter Parker, has been a behemoth with $785 million domestically and $2.02 billion globally to date. It’s the second-fastest film to join the $2 billion club after 2019’s “Avengers: Endgame,” which accomplished the rare feat in 11 days. “The Odyssey” stayed in second place with

From 1960 to 1993, author Donald Hamilton published many books for the widely beloved Matt Helm thriller series. Matt Helm, for those unfamiliar, is a rough-hewn American super-agent who's usually tasked with tracking down and murdering enemy agents. He's not so much a spy like James Bond but a government-hired assassin. He's also bitter and cynical in demeanor, with the Matt Helm novels frequently referencing the adventures that came before. This was a departure from other literary spy properties at the time, most notably the James Bond books. Bond, of course, made the jump to the big screen with 1962's box office hit "Dr. No" starring Sean Connery as Agent 007. That film wasn't just a success,

New day, new box office milestone for Sony’s latest Spidey adventure. “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” has surpassed $2 billion in global ticket sales, eclipsing the rare benchmark after just three weekends of release. The comic book adventure, starring Tom Holland as Marvel’s neighborhood web-slinger, has grossed $785 million in North America and $1.23 billion overseas for a grand total of $2.022 billion. The newest “Spider-Man” is one of eight films in history to reach the $2 billion club, joining the small-but-mighty company of 2009’s “Avatar” ($2.9 billion), 2019’s “Avengers: Endgame” ($2.7 billion), 2022’s “Avatar: The Way of Water” ($2.3 billion), 1994’s “Titanic” ($2.2 billion), 2015’s “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” ($2.07 billion) and 2018’s “Avengers: Infinity War” ($2.03 billion). Notably, “Brand New Day” is the second-fastest film to reach the threshold after “Endgame,” which got there after 11 days. “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” has been shattering expectations since landing in theaters at the end of July. The movie, Holland’s

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. John Wayne might have been America's cowboy, but as you would expect of an actor so in-demand, his filmography is full of non-Western fare. Some of Wayne's best roles include war movie classics such as "Sands of Iwo Jima" and the forgotten World War II adventure flop that also starred Alan Hale Jr. of "Gilligan's Island" fame, "The Sea Chase." Then, there's something like 1953's "Trouble Along the Way," the trailer for which promised audiences "Wayne's lustiest and laughiest hit." In actuality, it wasn't that much of a hit. In fact, it became one of the lowest-grossing films of the Duke's career.
